did a search online cant seem to find any. idk why but the oil in my supercharger seems to be a little bit on the low side so looking for some oil to fill it a bit.

Whipple sells it. They also list a Ford and GM product in the install manual.

Just for the heck of it run your finger under the snout of your supercharger. Any oily residue?

yeah like bruceh said, check around the snout for
any oil film.

the snout is a very common problem. if there is a problem be sure to contact whipple and they should take care of you.

thanks fellas. I got a GOOD IDEA what the snout is but just to make sure the snout is the part where the supercharger pulley is mounted to right. I havent checked yet but what would the problem be if there is some oil under ther snout? obvioulsy a leak somewhere but?

loots06

front most part of the snout near the pulley or where the snout connects to the main housing. more than likely towards the front...

Here is what it looks like when you have oil coming from the snout. I called whipple and sent them these pictures and they sent out a new snout for me.



And here is after I cleaned it all up, and waited to see if more oil was leaking (just to make sure before I contacted Whipple)

Just checked now dont see any oil deposit on the snout, car hasent been running for a few days either. Good to know to keep an eye out for oil on there i never knew that happends with whipples. Anyone know what cause that to happen?

nothing to worry about, i think it was
only an issue with the earlier snouts
which had a slightly different front seal
design.
